Developing and operating franchise food and pub outlets and distributing        
food products.                                                                  
FINANCIAL RESULTS                                                               
1  The Group`s turnover has increased by 11% when compared to the comparative   
six months but made a loss for the period ended 31 August 2004.                 
2  The franchising division returned to profitability for the interim period    
The Lusitania fish and processing factory was affected by lower capacity        
through the factory, due to poor catches by the local fishing                   
industry, resulting in losses for the period.                                   
EXCEPTIONAL ITEMS                                                               
The exceptional items disclosed in the income statement arose from:             
1  Loss on discontinued operation resulting from the closure of a company owned 
store.                                                                          
2  Profit on sale of Mike`s Kitchen Franchise                                   
3  Provision against prior year loans.                                          
PROSPECTS                                                                       
The profits in the Group`s trading divisions are weighted towards the second    
half of the year, due to the seasonal nature of the Groups operations           
The directors are looking forward to posting better results by year end.        
DIVIDENDS                                                                       
The Board has resolved not to declare a dividend.
